The Blues began the final day at 0 for 43 chasing 255 after skittling the Tigers for 164 on Sunday afternoon, including a collapse where Tasmania lost seven wickets for just 29 runs.

Nic Maddinson resumed on 17 and Carters on 26, and the pair added 40 runs before Maddinson was caught by Ed Cowan off the bowling of Luke Butterworth for 43.

Carters had no concerns, however, and he and Scott Henry took charge of the chase with Carters eventually out LBW for 100 with 11 boundaries.

Carters was out with the Blues 2 for 221, just 34 runs shy of victory. However, Ben Rohrer went first ball, putting paceman Sam Rainbird on a hat-trick.

Kurtis Patterson survived the next ball, however he departed on the stroke of tea for 4 to leave the Blues at 4 for 233, still 22 runs short.

Henry (76 not out) and Peter Nevill (16 not out) added the required runs after tea to secure the victory.

The Blues are still on top of the table with 18 points, while Tasmania - who took first-innings points before the second-innings collapse - are on 10 points.

Redbacks clinch win at MCG

In Melbourne, the Bushrangers started the day at 8 for 353, a lead of just 128 runs after the home side was dumped out for 118 on day one.

Some lower order hitting from Scott Boland (42) and Jonathan Holland (43) moved the total along, but the Victorians were finally bowled out for 404, leaving South Australia a target of 180.

There was trouble early, with Phil Hughes gone for a duck off a delivery from Clint McKay, and when Travis Head was dismissed by Boland for 12, the Redbacks were 2 for 27 and the hosts looked a chance of an unlikely victory.

But Michael Klinger and Tom Cooper steadied the ship, putting together a partnership of 122 to steer South Australia towards victory.

Cooper hit six fours and three sixes in his 71 before he was out on tea, while Klinger (73) and Callum Ferguson (21 off 14 balls) quickly sealed the points after the resumption, reaching 3 for 183.

The win takes South Australia to 16 points, two behind New South Wales, while Victoria remains on eight points.

Warriors secure draw against Bulls

Warriors captain Adam Voges scored an unbeaten double century to deny the Bulls their first outright victory of the season.

Voges made a career-high 235 in the Warriors' score of 5 for 447 (declared), which left the Bulls needing an unlikely 301 for victory off just 41 overs.

With limited time remaining, the Bulls were happy to play out time, reaching 2 for 76 off 30 overs before both sides agreed to halt proceedings at 5:15pm (AWST).

Although the Bulls managed to secure first-innings honours on a battig-friendly WACA wicket, they remain bottom of the Shield table with just four points to their name.

The Warriors sit in fourth spot with eight points.

The day belonged to Voges, who has not given up hope of earning a dream Test call-up at the age of 34.

Voges cracked 31 boundaries in his 457-minute stay at the crease, with his knock lifting the Warriors back into the contest after they were left with a 147-run first-innings deficit.
